Beautiful locket

How gorgeous is this engraved locket? I don't wear much jewelry, but Alex gave me a locket for Christmas, and I really love it. He put family photos inside, and it feels surprisingly heartwarming to wear it all day. Have you ever worn a locket?

I haven't, but I'd love to. I know that I would put a clover in—so many years ago my first daughter taught me an incredible lesson and life, hope, and the ability to hold on to magic even if it feels as if it's gone. Thank you for this unexpected reminder! http://amandamagee.com/2007/09/its-still-a-clover-mama/

I have a locket that I love, but don't know how to size pictures to put inside - I want to use digital photos and have them printed out at the right size. Anyone know how to do it? Johanna - does Alex have any tips?

anna, i just called alex to ask him: he went to a photo lab and they sized it for him, then he just cut out the photos! if you have a good color printer at home or at work, you could also do trial and error :)

I used to wear an empty locket (never bothered to get a tiny picture) and it was realllyyy odd how often I got hit on because of it...

guys used to constantly ask me who was in my locket, that would be there pick up line. then I would say oh it's empty and they'd respond with something really cheesy about how I've been waiting for pic of them or how they should be in it. It turned me off to the idea of it haha.

No but that one is beautiful! This Christmas my husband gave me a double strand necklace, each strand had my daughters initial on a small circle, their initials are "w" and "e" so naturally it spells "we". I love it. :)

After my grandmother died, it was basically my job to clean out her house and decide what we would keep and what to give away. She was always a very austere woman (came of age in England during WWII), and so never wore much jewelery, but I found a beautiful collection. In it was a golden, heart shaped locket that was empty. On that same trip I found an old photo of her that happened to fit, and it seemed like fate.

I wore that locket every day for four years after her death, and still wear it regularly. I am always surprised by how many people ask to see my locket, and always proud to show them my beautiful grandmother.

Just Beautiful! I gave a locket to my Daughter with a picture of her father and I when we dropped her off at college. I told her we if she got lonely or sad just look inside and it's Mom and Dad! FYI-I left the original pictures of the "Sailor" and his "Gal" under ours.

@Lendy this locket is gorgeous (I have it) but not real gold. In fact, I was slightly disappointed in it when I received it because it is slightly costumey looking in "real life." However, I've come to love it...in fact, I'm wearing it today! (

Completely unrelated but I would love to see your rotating favorites updated! Such great reads and I'm curious to know what else is out there that you're enjoying. Thanks so much for your wonderful blog. I enjoy it every day.

I have a couple of lockets that I really love to wear, but have been on the lookout for a worn looking vintage gold heart locket. I just love the look of those. The one you feature here is quite beautiful too.

Last year our daughter was born extremely premature so we spent all of the holidays in the hospital NICU with her, it was a very hard time. This holiday season our daughter got to be home with us and it was absolutely magical. To mark the occasion of her first Christmas at home my husband gave me a simple locket with our family picture in it. I cherish it deeply and will someday pass it onto her.

My husband gave me a locket as a wedding present. He had it engraved with my new monogram (I took his name) and he put he most random pictures of us in it! One of each of our faces! I don't think I could ever change them out though because of the sentimentality of the gift and it makes me laugh every time I open it :)

I had been looking for a nice gold locket for several years (I love the simplicity of the look, and the meaningful aspect). I looked at every flea market, jewelry shop, etc, but ended up finding the best options on Etsy! My boyfriend ended up purchasing it for my birthday, and it is always one of my favorite and most often worn pieces.

I've worn lockets since college and have several. My favorite, a large, vintage silver one, has a cut-out illustration of Huck Finn in it. I also have a flea market one with someone else's husband in it. I know lockets are usually filled with family pictures--children, spouses, loved ones--which is lovely, but mine remind me of a younger me--and in the crazy, messiness of having two little ones, it's nice to be reminded of a younger me. They are my favorite everyday jewelry.

My grandfather gave my grandmother a silver heart shaped locket before they were married - with her initials on it. Inside he put a picture of him in his army uniform and a picture of her from her 16th birthday. It's now mine, and I wear it all the time. I love it.

Lockets have always been my favourite type of jewelry to wear. I still have a silver heart I wore as a kid, when I carried around a photo of our beloved cat inside. Now I collect vintage lockets (and other treasures) and sell them on Etsy. There are a couple in my shop right now! xx Shanan http://www.thesymmetric.etsy.com

Gorgeous! I have my great grandmother's locket that my grandmother gave me as a child. Inside there is a picture of my great grandmother and a picture of my grandmother as a baby. It's one of my favorite treasures.

My (now) mother-in-law gave me one she had gotten when her son, my (now) husband was born. His picture was to go in one side and her second child's in the other. she lost the lock and had three more kids, so even after it was found, never put a second photo in. She got my mother to give her a photo of me as a child and surprised me with it. I love it because it was a gift from my new family.

I love this House of Harlow locket! I got it for Christmas and I've worn it everyday this week — it totally helps my tired self look pulled together and doesn't betray that I'm out of it due to newborn-induced sleep deprivation.

I wear a locket that belonged to my grandmother. She received it as a gift when she was a baby, so it's about a hundred years old. It is engraved with her name, "Anna", which is my middle name. When I had my daughter we gave her the middle name Anna as well and someday I will give her the locket to wear.

They have it on most on demand features, as well as on public TV on Christmas morning. We all die laughing from trying to be the one to spot the Santa hand poking the fire.?خرید سگ - فروش سگ For it to related sites and visit your favorite dog and it can be purchased over the Internet

What a beautiful locket! I am a huge romantic, and I have always been in love with the idea of wearing a locket with your loved ones' picture in it. I would love a locket just like this one. Is it heavy? http://missingpieces4u.com/Jewelry

That is a beautiful locket! I am looking to get a present for my wife. Our anniversary is coming up and I would love to get her a gold heart shaped locket. I plan on putting out wedding picture on one side and the pictures of our kids on the other. Do you know where I can find a gold heart shaped locket?
